I don't think they folded but I do think that their pass rush tired late in the game.

After the amazing Julio Jones sideline catch -- they did nothing.  And I might add if the Falcons just ran the ball 3 times into the line on Atlanta's 20+ yard line, they would have run down the clock and probably kicked the game winning field goal.  NE never would have been able to overcome it.

Atlanta made play-calling and execution mistakes that gave away what looked to be a win

I read that some football guys laid the blame for the second half on Quinn rather than Shanahan, that they should have spent more effort on running out the clock with running plays and passing when necessary, rather than continuing with the pass-first mentality.  They said that a head coaches job (one of them) is to overrule the OC when necessary in exactly those circumstances.  In retrospect, this makes a lot of sense.
